Bible. Ruth
08:004:011 And all the people that were in the gate, and the elders,
said, We are witnesses. The LORD make the woman that is come
into thine house like Rachel and like Leah, which two did
build the house of Israel: and do thou worthily in Ephratah,
and be famous in Bethlehem:
08:004:012 And let thy house be like the house of Pharez, whom Tamar bare
unto Judah, of the seed which the LORD shall give thee of this
young woman.
08:004:013 So Boaz took Ruth, and she was his wife: and when he went in
unto her, the LORD gave her conception, and she bare a son.
08:004:014 And the women said unto Naomi, Blessed be the LORD, which hath
not left thee this day without a kinsman, that his name may be
famous in Israel.
08:004:015 And he shall be unto thee a restorer of thy life, and a
nourisher of thine old age: for thy daughter in law, which
loveth thee, which is better to thee than seven sons, hath
born him.
08:004:016 And Naomi took the child, and laid it in her bosom, and became
nurse unto it.
08:004:017 And the women her neighbours gave it a name, saying, There is
a son born to Naomi; and they called his name Obed: he is the
father of Jesse, the father of David.
08:004:018 Now these are the generations of Pharez: Pharez begat Hezron,
08:004:019 And Hezron begat Ram, and Ram begat Amminadab,
08:004:020 And Amminadab begat Nahshon, and Nahshon begat Salmon,
08:004:021 And Salmon begat Boaz, and Boaz begat Obed,
08:004:022 And Obed begat Jesse, and Jesse begat David.
